Investing in securities involves inherent risks, including the risk that you can lose the value of your investment. There is no assurance that the investment process will consistently lead to successful results. An investment concentrated in sectors and industries may involve greater risk and volatility than a more diversified investment, and the technology sector has been among the most volatile sectors in the market. Call options involve certain risks, such as limited gains and lack of liquidity of the underlying securities, and are not suitable for all investors. There are risks associated with Small- and Mid-Cap investing such as less liquidity, limited product lines, and small market share.
Portfolio composition and holdings are subject to change at any time and should not be construed as a recommendation of any security. Individual account holdings and composition may vary.
Opinions and forecasts regarding sectors, industries, companies, countries and/or themes, and portfolio composition and holdings, are all subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions, and should not be construed as a recommendation of any specific security, industry, or sector.
